TRIPP-LITE N785-I01-SFP-DU Industrial Gigabit Copper to FiberMedia

Converter User Guide

Product Features

  • Extends a Gigabit Ethernet connection to an open SFP port with no software or additional configuration
  • Industrial housing withstands a wide range of operating temperatures from -40° to 75°C
  • Provides ESD, RFI and surge protection
  • IP30 rating guarantees protection from tools and wires greater than 2.5 mm
  • Open SFP port works with a variety of SFP transceivers
  • Can be powered using the included terminal block or a user-provided 12V DC power adapter
  • Auto MDI/MDI-X functionality removes the need for crossover cabling

Package Contents

  • N785-I01-SFP-DU Media Converter
  • Terminal Block (20~57VDC)
  • DIN Rail Kit
  • RJ45 Cap
  • SFP Cap
  • Quick Start Guide

Optional Accessories

  • N001-Series Cat5e Snagless Ethernet Cables
  • N201-Series Cat6 Snagless Ethernet Cables
  • N286-Series Transceivers
  1. Optional: Connect the included DIN Rail Kit to the unit using the included mounting hardware.
  2. Connect the RJ45 port of an unmanaged copper Ethernet switch to the RJ45 port of the first N785-I01-SFP-DU media converter with a user-supplied Cat5e/6 cable.
  3. Connect a transceiver to the first media converter’s open SFP port.
  4. Connect fiber cabling matching the transceiver type between the transceiver’s port and a matching transceiver connected to a second N785-I01-SFP-DU media converter.

Installation

  1. Connect the RJ45 port of a second unmanaged copper Ethernet switch to the RJ45 port of the second N785-I01-SFP-DU media converter with a user-supplied Cat5e/6 cable.
  2. Connect the 12~57VDC terminal block or optional 12V DC power supply to the media converters, and plug them into an available wall outlet, Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or Power Distribution Unit (PDU).
  3. When all connections have been made, check the “L/A (Link/Activity)” LED to confirm the connection has been established.

Copper to Fiber Installation

Notes:

  • The following installation instructions refer to an installation in which one media converter is used to increase the maximum distance between a copper switch and a fiber
  • To effectively communicate between media converters, the speeds of the copper and fiber ports of each media converter should be The diagram and table below show the speed you should use between media converters and switches, as well as which LED will illuminate with respect to that speed. The diagram also shows how one media converter can be used to increase the distance between a copper switch and a fiber switch.

  1. Optional: Connect the included DIN Rail Kit to the unit using the included mounting

  2. Connect the RJ45 port of an unmanaged copper Ethernet switch to the RJ45 port of the N785-I01-SFP-DU media converter with a user-supplied Cat5e/6

  3. Connect a transceiver to the media converter’s open SFP
    Connect fiber cabling matching the transceiver and switch type between the transceiver’s port and an unmanaged fiber Ethernet switch

  4. 5Connect the 12~57VDC terminal block or optional 12V DCpower supply to the media converter, and plug it into an available wall outlet, Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) or Power Distribution Unit (PDU).

  5.  When all connections have been made, check the “L/A (Link/ Activity)” LED to confirm the connection has been established.
